Wayne Rooney

He's known to light up occasionally. That's hardly a crime though. I doubt he's a pack a week smoker, surely not possible in this day and age.

Hmm. Well there's definitely something in his health and fitness regime that's seriously failing.
He looks like he'd be wheezing after tackling a flight of stairs

Not a comment on his weight specifically, but even when he looked at his best, I don't think he looked as fit as he could've been.

They put up with him as long he delivers on the pitch but he's no where near being considered a legend up there. That sentiment ended the last time he put in a transfer request.

Didn't he regain that status straight away with the overhead kick winner in the derby?

Yes he was shit for 8 months before that remember Song owning him in a game around that period.

The prostitute said he used to pay her £50 per packet of smokes. He drinks regularly seems to pack on a ton of weight if hes injured for a couple of weeks. Everyone can see hes physically declining his test results probably highlight that.
Hes been a wonder kid since 16 id say theirs no getting through to him at this stage. Id take him but not for the £40M and 250K a week.

They loved him. Scored so many important goals. Its just one season ago they said Rooney is the best striker in the world, better than RVP.

I know a lot of United fans and I don't think I've ever heard a single one claim Rooney was the best player in the world. Since his attempt to move to City they barely tolerate him. Most are only too happy it looks like he's leaving United.

Lots of footballers smoke.

Cryuff and Souness were smokers as was our own puffing Billy.

Oh we can afford the wages alright, but Wenger would prefer to pay them to 4 Gervinho's.

4 Gervinhos. That's the ultimate nightmare. Gervinho really has no place in an Arsenal line-up. We should sacrifice him this summer just to appease the fans.

You'd pay a player 250k a week?

Seen rumours on the French side that Lille, Lyon and Marseille are all interested in Gervinho.

That's so wacky it just might work. It would be ultimate confusion tactic. Four of them running all over the place might just confuse the opposition defence enough to let Ramsey in to score more regularly.

No, I don't think anyone is worth 250k p/w, unless you're running a Beckhamesque circus or something.

Armor

So if you had the choice between paying Rooney 250k or playing 4 Gervinho's which would it be?

Biggus

Aside from the fact that Rooney is a little fat Manc turd I wouldn't bet 250k on any one set of cruciate ligaments.

Armor

4 Gervinho's it is!

And yet, stamina has never been a problem for him. Excellent work ethic and work rate.

Mirth

Till this year.

Maybe so but I think we could have an Arshavin style issue with him?
He'd have to work harder on his fitness to combat the march towards thirty.
